She is no stranger to the headlines and is arguably Queen when it comes to successfully promoting herself to millions of people, but Kim Kardashian has now reached out to her global fans to tell them all how to capture the perfect 'selfie'.

The reality TV star in no stranger to social media and people were left speechless when she uploaded a revealing photo of herself in a white swimsuit. The image left very little to the imagine and ensured that all her followers saw plenty of her most famous body part - her curvy bum.

Kim was in a nail salon in America when she, along with friend and model Brittny Gastineau, filmed a video on how to take the perfect self-portrait and make the most of what you've got.

The 33-year-old laid down three basic rules that will help you take the best photo of yourself with your smartphone or camera.

Her video, which lasts just over a minute, explains that the first trick is that you "always need [your camera] to be a little bit higher [than yourself]. You always have to have it from high to low". The second rule was to "know your angle", while the third was "know your lighting".

However, Kim stresses that "no duck face" was also a strict rule when it comes to capturing flattering photos of yourself. The reality star added that this common habit of many people to exaggerate their pout when taking a selfie doesn't look attractive.

She said: "I love doing that, because it gives you cheekbones. But people get so mad."

However, it appears that Kim isn't confident about her bare face as she said that she looks "disgusting" without makeup on, to which her faithful friend told her to "shut up".

Kim and her partner Kanye West made the headlines earlier this month when they both starred in the rapper's latest Bound 2 video.

Taking the perfect photo can really help boost your profile on online dating websites, as well as building your own confidence which can be just as important when it comes to finding your new partner.
